Taylor Stanley

My name is Taylor, and I just love life. At the end of high school, after years of being the class clown, my friends told me that they hadn’t been laughing at my jokes, but laughing at how hard I was laughing at my own jokes. That pretty much sums it up.

My first lemonade stand wasn’t exactly a success. But I’ve always loved starting things. In high school, it was a lawn mowing business. In college, it was a series of embarrassing startups, most of which cost me more than they made me (NCAA gambling app, wooden bow ties, a marketing collective, etc.) But video production was the only thing that really stuck through all of those entrepreneurial phases. To this day I’m still captivated by almost every aspect of filmmaking.

I have a beautiful wife, Mollie, who somehow encourages me in all of my crazy ideas and hobbies, but keeps me grounded at the same time. We also have a tiny human living with us named Charles Phineas, AKA Finn. He’s red-headed like me, and just as goofy.

I spend my free time making furniture and other knick-knacks in the woodshop, hiking with Mollie, picking away on the guitar, and playing disc golf. If you knew me, it would make sense that I also love going to public places and just starting conversations with people I’ve never met. I still find myself starting sentences with, “When I grow up, I want to…”.

At the end of the day, I’m happy to simply love the people I share this planet with, and make things that inspire people to do the same.
